==History==

The company took on the official name of Sunspel in 1937.〔 In 1947, Sunspel was also the first company to develop the boxer short undergarment in the UK.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sunspel: Refined British Luxury )〕 In 1985, Sunspel was featured in a controversial advertisement for Levi’s, in which actor Nick Kamen stripped down to reveal his Sunspel boxers underneath.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=It's polo season )〕 The company was sold to Nicholas Brooke and Dominic Hazlehurst in 2005〔 by Peter Hill, a descendant of the company’s founder,〔 whose family had retained ownership of the company over the years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Revealed: a rare British success story )〕 In the 2000s, Sunspel clothing was used to outfit the fictional film character James Bond〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sunspel Sea Island cotton range - GQ.co.uk )〕 in the Bond movies ''Casino Royale'' and ''Quantum of Solace''.
